[maktruk]

sorry everyone but @stoney126 and I will not be making it for the convoy.

You're supposed to make him work, not yourself.

 

[Mike G]

@stoney126 & @Northern_XS sorry brothers, I couldn't resist.

If you still have it, I'll trade you a few beer's for it.

Drop Maktruk into the Gilroy line!

Coming from San Martin.

Are you sure Starbuck's can handle 20+ rigs (plus trailers?)

The Harbor Freight parking lot is huge, with pull-thru slots, and usually mostly empty

Cool Maktruk! jgincia PM'd me and said he can't make it to the Convoy. So that should give us 18 rigs including yourself for the Gilroy Convoy. kkauweloa said the parking lot should be fine and it's right next to a Starbucks [emoji477], got too love that. Here's a Google earth shot of the parking lot.

Parking lot is fine for those not pulling a trailer, I guess. I just know what that lot looks like at 6-10 AM on a Friday and am not interested in yanking a trailer through it. Plus, you guys are gonna want a photo op, and it's not gonna happen in that lot with 20 rigs

Already done. Been on three different trail runs since meeting you guys :-)

What if we park the rigs at the Kohl's parking lot, right next to Star Bucks? That lot is bigger and Kohl's should be closed at that time.

I am flexible for anywhere in that neighborhood. As long as i can have some coffee.

There ya go.

I just know logistics. Starbuck's coffee goers don't have time or patience for a bunch of doofi on their way to go camping twisting their goods around for that perfect shot. It's just a recipe for disaster.

And I don't want to turn around in there, lol. I'm not pulling a traditional overland trailer fellas!

 

[maktruk]

Tell ya what. The more I look at it, Gilroy is actually out of my way. 152 is in my backyard. Put me on the list for Madera Walmart instead.

And go have your burnt coffee :-P

@NorCalCrisp are you going to still meet the Sacramento convoy in lodi around 730am

I'll still see you in Lodi.

Isn't San Martin just North of Gilroy? I prefer Mc Donald's coffee myself but I'll still drink Starbucks coffee. Will update the list and info on Saturday.

 

[Mike G]

So for the rest of the group that have trailers, should we meet in the Kohl's parking lot right next to Starbucks?

 

[maktruk]

It is just north, but 152 is due east of me by country road. I don't need Gilroy traffic ;-)

 

[Mike G]

Does anyone from the Gilroy Convoy have a SWR meter I can use? I'm ordering my CB this weekend.

If anyone will be traveling, Thursday the 22nd, through Sacramento, and wants to take the scenic route, let us know...
